Commits

  1. pg_receivewal, pg_recvlogical: allow canceling initial password prompt.

  2. Allow psql's other uses of simple_prompt() to be interrupted by ^C.

  3. Provide a variant of simple_prompt() that can be interrupted by ^C.

  4. Make psql's \password default to CURRENT_USER, not PQuser(conn).
